Thanks Skuldren, I will check them out sometime. I'd really like to do it with you guys, but I guess that won't be happening. At least DS will be there. Then again it would be nice to have a fresh start, because Ferno was getting a little too whiny. I'd have to improve on him (if I used him) when I do it._________________

It's basically like telling a story. Everyone makes up a character and they take turns writing. Darth Skuldren can probably explain it better, but don't worry I was green as bantha butter when we started this. Thanks Mara, we may get this thing off the ground yet. _________________

Well in that case, I've RPG'd before. Just unknowingly. A friend of mine and I used to do that back and forth through the email all the time when we were younger. So maybe I might be able to pull it off! _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

IronFist is on those sites too.

Yeah, it's all done in forums pretty much like what we were doing here. You make up a character, they get approved, then you roleplay and interact with others. It can be really fun, especially pretending to be a Yuuzhan Vong commander _________________

I'm willing to get back into this one here, which gives us four. The question is, would it be better to start a whole new RPG?

We could. Let's put it to a vote...

Those in favor of continuing the RP?

(and if not, please suggest what RP you would be interested in)_________________

Well...seeing as I'm a newcomer, what would starting a new RPG entail? And if we stuck with the old one, how would that work? Pros and cons of each? _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

A lot more thinking, but thinling can be fun. I for one would like a new one, maybe a Jedi one?_________________

Right now, everything's set where we are mercs and we were about to go to Manaan to do some sabotage. (time period is Thrawn trilogy)

If we want a new one, say with Jedi, we also need to decide what time period we want to play in. Old Republic, Empire, NJO, etc._________________

I'd be happy with a new one. Jedi sounds fun, but of course not all characters would need to be Jedi. So, I vote new, and Jedi. Time period...Clone Wars maybe? Either that or Old Republic, for me. But, I'll do whatever.

Count me in for any RPG. I vote going with Jedi and Old Republic for the time period.

This is the way I see the possibilities with the two options
Old Republic

Pros are:
A large time frame to choose from with relatively little written about it

the time period between KOTOR II and TOR provides an additional way to speculate on the details of what happened to lead up to TOR

More freedom for Sith characters

Cons:
Due to very little being written by comparison it also means less to go on and base missions on

Less specified technology and ships to base specific details on

The Clone Wars pros:
Well written about giving us concrete stuff to base the RPG around

Established ships and technologies makes it easy to handle specific details

Cons:
Clone armies limits the species of non-Jedi characters if we want to be soldiers in main battles outside of doing black ops

Sith characters are more limited in number and can't be as powerful_________________

I was going to vote for The Old Republic time period, too. _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

I'd say Old Republic, but I wouldn't mind an early Legacy one either._________________
